I almost cried. This morning, we had an online grocery service delivery. When unpacking the bags, one was particularly heavy. When we looked in, it was full of bags of carrots ("mrkev" in Czech). A lot! I accidentally ordered 6 kg (13 1/4 lbs) of them. I believe I know the issue. In Czech, the word "kus" meaning "item" is abbreviated "ks". I saw that and the photo above it showed one individual solitary carrot. Plus, the price seemed very low. However, the "one item" turned out to be a 1 kg bag.

Something like the above happened with bananas, when I thought I was ordering 3, but got three bunches. It also happened with fresh tuna. Instead of a tuna steak, I ended up getting a long slab the size of a full tenderloin of beef. Unlike the carrots and bananas, the tuna mistake was far more costly (won't say how much). The whole 6 kg of carrots only cost $3 (75 czk). Individual bananas are only about 35 cents (8 czk). I wish we could shop in physical stores more often, but Hubby hates going to them and I've grown lazy.

Update: Hubby came up with the idea of contacting the parrot lady zoo employee neighbor of ours. She has at least 100 parrots of various types she takes care of just on her property. He said we may be considering adopting a new parrot in the future. A strategic starter so she didn't think us weirdos. Then he made the offer of the carrots. In any case, she accepted them. We'll bring all but one bag to her tomorrow.
